For this project, you will be selecting one of the modern cultures from the below table (or one that has been approved by your teacher), and researching them through physical books in the school's library, books at the public library, and sources found on online databases. Once your culture is selected, go through the resources in the right column to find relevant sources, then cite them using BibGuru.

Making your first Bibliography and not sure where to start? We recommend trying BibGuru:
With BibGuru, first you select your citation style (APA and MLA are the most common - your teacher should tell you which to use). Then, all you have to do is paste the URL of your source into the bar at the top, double check all the information it pulls, and hit Save. It will automatically put each new source into the correct order and start generating your Bibliography. You can also search for books and articles directly, but if they don't have them, you can always add the info manually - BibGuru will still handle all the formatting for you!
Requires a public library card
